To carry on or not

From what TS has said thus far, I believe his father will DEFINITELY object to him jumping over to some other courses.

Come to think of it, this is yet another major point. If TS has the earning ability to support himself and study at the same time, then course-hopping will not be that hugh of a problem. Otherwise, it will be better off for him to stay in engineering, as his father probably will neither support him morally nor financially for taking up another course instead.

That might be true but if you never tried you never know. Most parents still cares about their children and will still consider their opinions especially since TS is no longer a young boy and should be old enough to know what he wants now.

I guess my dad's not that hard to understand after all.

I used to skype with my parents once a week when i first came here, ever since i got my first semester results, which is like around march, i have not been skyping with them already. Only occasional calls. I will always put it off saying i am busy,tired,blah blah. So the answer as to whether i have discuss with my parents yet is a no.

What i'm trying to go when i get back is to gather as much info, talk to as much people possible and then STAND FIRM on my decision already. I must do it already.

Forbidden sinner i have thought about doing part-time studies before, because i do not want to waste my parents money anymore - worst come to worst. But considering i am doing a 180 degree course switch, i reckon i would need more time to 'level up' and i really want to do well in it. Part time will cause some distractions i'm afraid. But, yes that is not an option that I will cancel out if things do turn out ultimately that way.

You can always count on those who are regulars around here. Only.

If you put this thread in another forum... you will get very interesting responses.

As you have said so yourself, you want to wait for your results first. That is the first step.

Yeah.

Thank you all for the kind advice and warm response for my first post.

I will do what's left and carry on from here.

Thank you all once again. =)
